Fort Gibson, OK/Dover, Fla./Tampa, Fla. (The Weekly Vice) -- Authorities in two states announced the arrests of three naughty women this week who have been arrested and charged in three unique cases involving Grand Theft, Child Rape and Animal Abuse.
Melissa Jo Wilson, a 33-year-old Fort Gibson, Oklahoma woman has been arrested on accusations that she raped a 14-year-old boy.
According to Muskogee County authorities, Wilson had sex with a 14-year-old boy between June 1st and August 21st of this year. Investigators say Wilson took the boy to a secluded cemetery, YES A CEMETERY, to have sex in her car. Authorities also say the woman hid the boy from his parents and police by providing a tree house for him to stay at.
Wilson has been charged with 2nd-degree rape, lewd or indecent proposals or acts to a child under 16 and obstructing an officer. She was booked into a Muskogee County jail on a $50,000 bond.
Wilson is scheduled to appear again in court on September 11th, where a preliminary hearing date is expected to be set.
Charlotte Mathews-Nelson, a 43-year-old Dover, Florida woman has been arrested on eight counts of cruelty to animals and eight counts of confinement of animals without food or water.
Hillsborough County Sheriff's deputies arrested Mathews-Nelson and took custody of 10 dogs that were in her care after authorities say she failed to comply with Animal Control demands that she improve the condition of the dogs in her keep.
Animal Services discovered the malnourished dogs, who were being deprived of food, water and proper housing, on an anonymous complaint. Officials then gave Mathews-Nelson information on care standards. When Sheriff's deputies discovered Mathews-Nelson failed to comply with those standards, they arrested on her on Thursday.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Department say Mathews-Nelson told them that she had no money to pay for food or veterinary care for the dogs. She was booked into jail on a $20,000 bond.
Debra W. West, a 46-year-old adoption agency director from Tampa, Florida has been arrested and charged with grand theft, resulting in a total take of over $188,000 from Florida birth families who's fees were already covered by medicare.
